Language in Society is a highly regarded interdisciplinary journal that explores the intricate connections between language and society. It examines how language is influenced by and, in turn, shapes social structures, cultural norms, and individual identities. The journal offers a platform for research in sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, and linguistic anthropology. Coverage includes topics such as language variation, multilingualism, discourse analysis, language policy, and the social construction of meaning.

Language in Society is committed to publishing innovative research that advances our understanding of the complex interplay between language and social life. By providing a forum for diverse perspectives and methodologies, the journal aims to contribute to both theoretical development and practical applications in fields such as education, communication, and social justice. Scholars are encouraged to submit manuscripts that align with the journal's broad scope.
